Depends on what effects you want the Helix to provide. If you’re using only modulation effects, then it can go right into one of the Invective loops. If you’re only using overdrives etc then you can run it into the Invective Input. If you plan on using both up front effects and modulation effects, then 4CM is the way to go.

thanks for the reply man I currently use the 4CM with my line 6 bogner tube amp using Helix for distoryions and bogner for modulation I will most likely go this route again with the helix now being modulation and the invective being the distortion

That’s the way to do it. My drummer has that L6 Bogner head and he likes it for the little bit he plays guitar. The Invective has one of most iconic metal circuits ever imagined though, so it would be a real shame not to use it as your main distortion sound. Let us know your thoughts on the setup once you get it up and running.

so I have had the rig set up and been trying different ways to hook up the helix to the invective. The best way so far is out of guitar into helix guitar input out of 1\4 out to front of amp then out of send on invective effects loop to the helix return effects loop and return to invective effects loop. This allows me to operate two ways on the helix my bottom row of switches acts as a normal pedal board and the top row of switches act as my delay and other effects on just the effects loop. so its like I have a pedal board and effects loop running at once. sounds glorious
